Description
Book SynopsisImagine if your non-technical clients could safely produce software without the need for anyone to manually write code. Domain-specific languages are purpose-built programming interfaces that make that possible—no programming experience required.
Written for developers who need to create user-facing DSLs, Domain- SpecificLanguages Made Easy unlocks clear and practical methods to createDSLs with easy-to-use interfaces. Author Meinte Boersma lays out an iterative process for creating languages accessible to domain experts such as operations specialists, data analysts, and financial experts. You'll start with an overview of software language engineering before diving into the unique projectional editing paradigm that makes it easy to produce DSLs for business.
Imagine if your non-technical clients could safely produce software without the need for anyone to manually write code. Domain-specific languages are purpose-built programming interfaces that makethat possible—no programming experience required. This frees software developers from the time-consuming translation of a client's functional and domain-specific specifications, replacing complex code for modern and intuitive UIs
Trade Review“A great alternative to DSL implementations that not many resources out there cover.”AdhirRamjiawan
“This is anice practical exploration of Domain Specific Languages using JavaScript.” GeorgeThomas
“The manuscript is excellent. The content is great, the illustrations are very well done. The author has taken a very pedagogical approach to transfer practical nd rapidly exploitable knowledge in a short period of time.” Alain Lompo
“AMUST-HAVE book on the topic!” Karthikeyarajan Rajendran
“DSL is always considered niche area and difficult to do. This book make it easy foryou to understand with easy to understand examples. If you ever wanted to learn but never tried you now have a good reason to do so!” Kumar Unnikrishnan
“Great external DSL reference. With this book you will have all you need to build your external DSL!” Julien Pohie
“An interesting concept of mixing DSL design with high-level software design.” TobiasKaatz
“This book is really interesting for the intended user. Easy to grasp, understand, followalong and try out the code in small incremental steps.” Satej Kumar Sahu
“It's one thing to use a DSL, it's another to design and implement one. This book narrows the gap for anyone interested.” Burk Hufnagel
